The Reason for ATOM

“I’m not running for president, I am not a corporate executive, and I don’t tell bedtime stories to adults unless its for fun and they’re friends. I can tell you what it feels like to be me, but I don’t know how it feels to be you. I’m willing to listen, up to a point, but unless your site is hosted on weblogs.com, I don’t understand why you’re hogging the microphone right now. I believe so strongly in the weblog world, that we should be grounded in truth. I think a lot of people participating in this dicussion are not grounded in truth, deliberately so, openly so. Shame on you, I say.”
